lyrics

Paranoid style
Arena of angry minds
Getting twisted
Into conspiracies

Don't laugh at
Their absurdity
Persecution
Is their pornography

It’s on the printout.
It’s at the readout.
Why don't you read it and weep?
I can’t see clearly in the dark, so
There’s no illusions to me.

Why don't you get out?
You’re on the way out.
Why can’t you see you should leave?
We can’t see clearly in the dark, now
Why don’t you leave this to me?

I’m on a stakeout.
Outside the hideout.
Open the windows and see.
And I hear your meetings in the dark, so
There’s no illusions to me!

It’s on the printout.
It’s at the readout.
Why don't you read it and weep?
And I can’t see clearly in the dark!

You’re all a fade out
After the take out
That’s no condition to be
Cause we can’t see clearly in the dark
Now, there’s no illusions to me

Why don't you get out?
You’re on the way out.
Why can’t you see you should leave?
Cause we can’t see clearly in the night.

Go slowly.
Don’t hurt their unity.
Easy to say.
Some don’t have that luxury.
So we suffer,
For you complicity
Too late!
Their boots on top of me!
